[ It's supposed to make him feel better, isn't it? Gojo-sensei is being so considerate of him, despite Yuji knowing how much he's been suffering, locked away in the prison realm, and it isn't fair. He should be the one taking that pain and doing something about it, helping to protect the people around him - instead of failing, time and time again, and ending up doing nothing more than causing more problems.
He had been so desperate to do his own thing, to prove his point, to find proper deaths and have no regrets, that in the end it had snowballed out of control.
Sukuna had been right the whole time. People are going to die because you live. The list keeps piling up.
It's still hard to look at Gojo, but he knows he has to put himself back together. He can't be the one putting weight on Gojo's shoulders when he's not sure how much his sensei knows, and he can handle this. He can bury it down, deep inside himself, because he might be able to fix it. He had promised to save Fushiguro, so he doesn't intend to be in a position where he can't keep his word. No matter what it takes, he'll save Fushiguro - he'll fight anything, do anything, eat anything. This is what he can do, what Yuji Itadori is made for.
Ears flicking, he nods, once, sharply. ]
... Yeah. [ A sniffle. He's still crying. ] I'm trying to remember it all. I am.
[ Todo had reminded him of it, hadn't he? That's how he was able to get up after Shibuya. To keep fighting now, though... Only his own determination is enough. ]

It's really good to see you again.
